DISCOVERCreate a criminal defense lawyer app
Criminal defense lawyer app: your firm reachable in one tap, with what to know in an emergency
A relative in police custody, a summons, a hearing: your clients find the right number, the right reflexes and an appointment, in the firm's app.
Build your firm's native iOS and Android app without writing code: a Contact section to call, email or text the firm, guides on procedures, an assistant that answers from these guides, and bookable consultations.
Free 30-day trial - No credit card required

A consultation you can book, when it is not urgent
Summons, hearing to prepare, next steps in a case: clients book a slot that is actually free
For what can wait for an appointment, your clients open Appointment booking, pick the lawyer and the type of consultation, then confirm a free slot, synced with Google Calendar. Emergencies go through a call, from the Contact section.
An assistant that answers from your guides
The questions people ask when a relative is being questioned
“How long can police custody last?” The Chatbot searches the guides published in your app and answers in the language of the question, at any hour. It relies on what you have published; the defense of a case remains yours.
The summons, received before the meeting
A form with a file field for the summons
Build a Form section: court, hearing date, summons as an attachment. You get an email for each submission and prepare the meeting with the date in mind.
Your firm reachable in one tap
Call, text, email: the Contact section, within thumb's reach
Put the Contact section at the top of the app: one tap to call the firm, one to send a text, one to write. You choose the number shown and who answers; the app does not create an on-call service, it saves your clients from searching for your number at the worst moment. Next to it, your guides give the right reflexes.
Preparing a criminal defense firm's app: what you configure, in practice
Three settings in the back office.
The Contact section
Choose the links shown, call, text, email, and put the section at the top of the app.The guides
Publish the right reflexes for each situation, and choose the ones the assistant can use.The consultations
Create one section per lawyer and per type of consultation, each with its own length, linked to the lawyer's Google Calendar.
Also in your app
Guides on procedures
Police custody, fast-track trial, voluntary interview: publish the right reflexes, written by you.
One calendar per lawyer
Each lawyer has their hours, blocked court days and Google Calendar.
A booking form that qualifies the request
Type of case, hearing date, phone number: you choose the fields asked when booking.
Your news
Procedural reforms, decisions: alert readers with a push for each publication.
Content reserved for your clients
With Authentication and User groups, some sections only open to the clients whose case you handle.
Courts on a map
Place the courts where you practice on a map, with their address.

Criminal defense lawyer app: frequently asked questions
Can a client call the firm directly from the app?
Yes: the Contact section offers a call link, a text link and an email link. You choose the number shown and the order of the links.
Can clients reach a lawyer at any hour through the app?
It shows the number you choose; availability depends on how your firm is organized. The assistant, however, answers at any hour from your guides, without replacing a lawyer.
Do exchanges with the firm go through the app?
No: the call, the text and the email leave from the client's phone, through their usual apps. The app is not a secure messaging service between clients and their lawyer.
Can I publish guides on police custody or hearings?
Yes, in an articles section, written by you. The assistant can rely on them, and a push alerts your readers to each new guide.
Can a defendant send their summons before the meeting?
Yes, through a Form section with a file field. You get an email for each submission.
